Timing Functions
Overview
Between your VIP, your DAW, and/or an external MIDI device, your Advance 49 will be working within a
setup that requires a MIDI clock source. Here are some things to keep in mind when (1) selecting the MIDI
clock source and (2) adjusting/editing any timing-related settings in your setup.
Tempo
External MIDI Clock Source: To use your DAW or external MIDI device as your MIDI clock source, set
Advance 49’s Clock Source (in Global Mode) to External. Similarly, set the MIDI clock source in your DAW
or external MIDI device to send its clock information out. Advance 49’s Tap Tempo button will be disabled
and its light will remain off when using an external clock source.
Internal MIDI Clock Source: To use Advance 49 as your MIDI clock source, set its Clock Source (in Global
Mode) to Internal. Similarly, set your DAW and/or external MIDI device to receive clock information from
Advance 49.
You can set Advance 49’s internal tempo in either of the following ways:
Tap the Tap Tempo button at the desired rate.
Adjust the Internal Tempo setting in Global Mode.
The tempo of the MIDI clock source affects Advance 49’s Arpeggiator and Note Repeat features.
Tap Tempo
When Advance 49’s Clock Source (in Global Mode) is set to Internal, its Tap Tempo button will flash at
rate the current tempo. The button will be disabled and its light will remain off when Advance 49’s Clock
Source is set to External.
You can use Global Mode to customize the Tap Tempo button’s operation. Use Tap Average to set the
number of times you would need to press Tap Tempo for Advance 49 to detect and enter a new tempo. Use
Tempo LED to turn the button’s light On or Off.
You can also set a connected footswitch to act as the Tap Tempo button. See MIDI Edit Mode to learn how
to do this.
Time Division
Advance 49’s time division setting determines how each beat is divided. The setting is a subdivision of the
tempo: 1/4, 1/4T, 1/8, 1/8T, 1/16, 1/16T, 1/32, and 1/32T (T denotes a triplet-based time division). This
feature works whether Advance 49’s Clock Source is set to Internal or External.
You can set the time division by pressing Time Div and pressing one of the 8 switches. Alternatively, set the
Time Division parameter in the configuration pages for the Arpeggiator or Note Repeat.
Transport Control
The four Transport Control buttons are dedicated buttons for sending conventional transport control
commands: Stop, Play, Record, and Loop (if your software supports this feature). You can use the
Transport Format setting (in Global Mode) to set these buttons to send MIDI (MIDI Start/Stop), CC (pre-
assigned MIDI CC values), MMC (MIDI Machine Control), and MMC/MIDI. The PTEX setting is for use with
Avid
®
Pro Tools
®
Express only: transport control messages will be sent only on USB Port B, Channel 16,
regardless of the Common Channel setting.
Important: Your software must be able to loop or repeat in order to use the Loop button. Also, configure the
Transport Format in Global Mode so it communicates properly with your software.
